Story
As a company, Articulate Marketing will be fundraising for The National Deaf Children’s Society in September 2023.
NDCS is a charity that gives expert support on childhood deafness, raises awareness and campaigns for deaf children’s rights, so they have the same opportunities as everyone else.
Participants will do the following to earn your sponsorship...
Mindfulness moments:
Throughout September, participants will commit to taking a daily 10-minute moment of mindful silence. That could be in the form of taking a short walk, doing a meditation, practicing yoga or something else. The purpose is to be present in the moment, not speaking, just listening. It’s also good practice for…
The Day of Silence:
This will take place on 15th September, following on from a British Sign Language workshop run by a native BSL speaker. On this day, as a company, we will endeavour to support participants’ vow of silence by avoiding booking any meetings.
This is a chance to explore alternative forms of communication or get in the flow of a deep task. The one rule: no talking. (Except in emergencies, obviously.)
At the end of the month, we will reflect on what we’ve learned about hearing loss prevention and deaf awareness.
Are we more mindful of these issues? Are we taking steps to prevent hearing damage? Is there something to be learned from moments of silence?
Sponsors, please give what you can to this worthy cause — if only for a bit of peace and quiet!
